Abstract
This manuscript reports upon the development of a microfluidic setup to detect and sort sperm cells from polystyrene beads label-free and non-invasively. Detection is performed by impedance analysis. When sperm cells passed the microelectrodes, the recorded impedance (19.6 ± 5.7 Ω) was higher compared to the impedance change of passing 3 μm beads (5.4 ± 0.7 Ω ). This information was used to discriminate and actively sort beads and spermatozoa using dielectrophoresis at a rate of <1 cell/bead s-1.
